Three men were arrested in Tampa after sheriff's deputies there caught them driving a car stolen in Palm Beach County.

Court documents show that Ulysses Bonilla, 18, Angel Morales, 19, and Luciano Morales, 22, all of West Palm Beach, are accused of carjacking a man while flashing a gun and a knife at a Palm Springs McDonald's on Feb. 5.

The 18-year-old victim told Palm Springs police that the three carjackers at one point used his car to pick up a woman in West Palm Beach and then made him drive to a gas station where they robbed him of $1.20 to pay for gas. Then they drove the victim to Port St. Lucie, where they ditched him in a rural area before driving to Tampa, court records show.

Palm Springs police charged the three men with aggravated assault, carjacking, kidnapping and robbery with a weapon. They were booked into the Palm Beach County Jail on Monday.
